This XBMC for O2 Joggler release will directly boot into XBMC. It has no GUI for linux installed, so it is as lightweight as possible. It eats only around 100Mb of RAM, boots really fast and it is build on Btrfs filesystem. The base for this distribution was Ubuntu Base/Server 12.04 LTS (Precise) (Joggler Image v1.1 - 17/06/2012) from BuZZ.

I wanted to build as small as possible distribution for O2 Joggler with XBMC, which should have WAF (wife acceptance factor) at least 8 , but there were no available, so I have made a custom one. I hope you will enjoy it. Also feel free to mode it, but do not sell it on e-Bay

Installation (Windows):
XBMC for O2 Joggler will fit on most 2GB USB and SD cards ((1.990.520.832 bytes). I have made it as small as possible.
Download image and uncompress it with (7Zip, WinRAR,...). Get Win32DiskImager from https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/0.1/0.1. Then unpack the .img.gz file using 7-zip or. WinRAR. Run W32DiskImager.exe, and select the unpacked .img file. Choose the drive of your USB stick, SD card and press 'Write' to write the image.

ATM the image is in 'beta' stage because there is still some work to do. Bugs are possible because I have only one Joggler and was able to test only on them. REPORT BUGS

I hate using download services since megauplaod is down and all free downloads are now limited to 20kb/s, so I have registered domain and did some hosting stuff for faster download. To cover the costs for domain costs please consider making a small donation. TNXDonation link:https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?c ... LBWXQS3PCL

What is new:
- added AirPlay support (tested with iPad to send music, photos, videos and it works great),
- added .flac file play support,
- added samba support, so you can easy copy files from PC to Joggler (by default it works with WORKGROUP. If you are using other name, you have to edit file /etc/samba/smb.conf. Also by default it shares /media/ folder),
- added gui option to enable debugging under XBMC,
- added repository for TVCatchup,
- added Fusion repository (Go under setting/add-ons/install from zip file/select Fusion)
- added repository installer addon,
- removed addons Icefilms, 1Channel, Tube+, Navi-X because of some legal stuff according to XBMC community rules (you can always easy add them by yourself),
- addon XSqueeze can now auto-find Squeezebox media server (there are no touch buttons, but maybe developer will integrate them or. will try to code it by myself). I have also tested it to control it over iPad, Android and it is working without problems (test were done with original Logitech software). Also I think the crashing was caused by some missing dependencies, what I have also fixed in version v0.9. It is ATM hard to use player on XBMC forO2 Joggler because of missing touch buttons on player interface but hopefully this will soon change.

To do:
- First I have decided not to include TVHeadend into the image by default but short how to will follow, someday , because I want to keep the distro as small as possible and not everybody needs TV backend.
- I want to build auto updating distribution so the changes will be applied automatically. Do not to expect this in short.

XBMC for O2 Joggler v0.8
Download: http://bite-in.com/joggler/i4_XBMC_v0.8.rar
Whats new:
- fixed bug with not getting IP from DHCP when using LAN cable,
- now both wired and wireless should work,
- it is now possible to have two IPs at the same time (one on wireless and one on ethernet) - Only recommended for management,
- XBMC plugin for network management is fully usable now.

To do:
- some small tweaks and bug fixes,
- brightness settings for LCD,
- maybe integration of TVHeadend client for DVB-T reception.

This is absolutely fantastic news. Well done - you've probably made a few people very happy indeed! (and you're using my favourite skin too )

I just have a few questions. You say the wifi is not working yet. Due to it's location this joggler is wifi only - I'm guessing that means that I would get the image as is and not be able to have any further add-ons or update add-ons at the moment unless I hook it up to my router?

Also, I really want to be able to get roobarb!s squeezeplay on this joggler. Would there be a simple way for me to download it onto this os?

Finally, what does it mean to have root account enabled and why might I consider disabling? Sorry!

I was thinking in direction to run it from inside XBMC with some scripting as I have already implemented possibility to launch scripts from inside XBMC. It could work the way from XBMC into Squeezeplay, but then it must be done also in reverse order, so from Squeezeplay into XBMC. Maybe will try in few days after I am done with polishing XBMC for O2 Joggler.

I know that people would mostly like to use both of those services so I will try my best and will hopefully succeed to offer you both services in one installation something like kinderuberaschung

I think I have solved the network with wireless and wired LAN. Now both are working (DHCP). You can now also have two IP adresses at the same time. Configurable from inside XBMC (wireless).
Image will be available tomorrow for download.

Got this up and running and it is all looking very good so far
thank you kindly sir , donation following pay day
I couldn't get on line with it but had a good play with the skins e.t.c and a lot of work has gone in to setting this up , I can't tell .
Leaving it on tonight to test it , will get my powerline adapters out of the loft tomorrow to see if I can get on line and get it all set up .
Cheers

So this is ubuntu based right, Could you not launch roobarbs squeezeplay with advanced launcher? you could then give this browser support also. This was something I was going to do a little while back but time constraints stopped me lol

Whats new:
- fixed bug with not getting IP from DHCP when using LAN cable,
- now both wired and wireless should work,
- it is now possible to have two IPs (one on wireless and one on ethernet) - Only recommended for management,
- XBMC plugin for network management is fully usable now.

To do:

- integrate AirPlay into it (in my Joggler it already works, so tomorrow maybe another version),
- brightness settings for LCD,
- maybe integration of TVHeadend client for DVB-T reception.

Do not forget to donate so I can cover the hosting costs. TNX.

Hello. I thought I'd try this out (v0.8) tonight but am having a bit of trouble and can't get it to work. I may be doing something wrong. I've added wifi details in programs and it says I'm connected but it isn't downloading anything - is there a step I'm not doing? Thanks.

Edit: It says 'busy' in the top right hand corner - not sure if that is relevant. I'm also getting quite a few script errors (due to wifi connection?).
